A 1930’s detached family home set in a generous plot in this quiet cul de sac.

Description

A detached family home of immense character and charm situated in this quiet and sought after cul de sac. Set in a very generous plot with ample off road parking, garaging and an established private garden at the rear. Planning permission has been granted to extend the current footprint to a five bedroom, four reception room property with a sociable open plan kitchen/dining room overlooking the rear garden.

The property is approached via the block paved driveway with access to the entrance porch and the original painted wooden door opens into a generous entrance hall, with a rising staircase to the first floor. The principal rooms are light and bright including the dual aspect sitting room, leading to a light filled conservatory. Features include ceiling cornicing and a stone fireplace with inset gas burner. The conservatory overlooks the private garden and provides a seamless flow onto the outdoor space. Adjacent is the generous dining room with a full width arched bay window overlooking and providing access to the garden. Along the hall is the well equipped kitchen with a range of wall and base units, in-built oven, electric hob and space for a dishwasher. Double glazed sliding doors provide further access onto the rear garden. Completing the ground floor accommodation is a useful shower room with WC and wash hand basin.

Stairs rise to the first floor with the principal bedroom positioned above the sitting room, dual aspect and enjoying plenty of natural light. There are three further bedrooms including a guest bedroom with a full width arched bay window. The bedrooms are served by a generous family bathroom with WC and basin.

Of particular note are the gardens which enjoy sun throughout much of the day. The rear garden is predominantly laid to lawn with well stocked border areas containing a vast variety of shrubs, flowers and mature trees. There is a level patio terrace, accessed from the dining room and kitchen, perfect for al fresco dining.
